I know Sleezy will love this.
I'm using Trueprotein.com as an example as well as the standard. I'm opening this thread to discuss different ideas of what would be some good custom proteins. Anyone feel free to chyme in. I think it would be a good idea to open this thread about all the different kinds of protein out there and what would be a good choice depending on what someone would want it for.
I've been trying to come up with some good custom blends to suit my needs. Here are the categories that I feel are most important: (
in order)
1. Pre/Postworkout Formula
2. Nighttime Formula
3. MRP or Daytime formula
Of course I'm going to say that 90% of anyone's protein needs should come from whole foods albiet eggs, meat, poultry. But, a lot of members here aren't 180 lbs. either! I'm 260 currently, and I don't think it's particularly easy to eat strictly whole foods to meet my needs. My daily goal is to hit 400 grams per day. That means if I eat 50 grams of protein per meal, I'll need 8 meals to consume. Hypothetically, if I'm only awake for around 14 hours, that means I need to eat every 1 hour, 45 minutes. I just don't have that kind of money to spend on groceries. :17:
This company seems like the best one I've seen for protein needs. I personally don't like big name company proteins because they're too expensive for what you get. On 100% whey has been the best out of all of them for me, but...If you compare the ingredients in a 5 lb container to TP's whey isolate (cold filtration), the difference you spend on TP's won't be a lot.
ON 100% whey (5 lb)= $28
TP isolate (5 lb)= $34
The difference is with TP's you got 100% isolate whereas with ON's, you're getting a lot of concentrate along with isolate. Follow my thinking?
Feel free to input anything. Studies, descriptions, ect.. Everyone I'm sure knows about that.
